It would be fun to have speed runs on the Super G course at Mission, provided they had the nets up. Top of Windy Ridge down Skookum to Mimi. As 2FUNKY can attest even a minor fall with the snow like it is right now at Mission could be life altering. With the proper skis the skiing on the groomed runs is ridiculously fun right now.

Hyak Face when it's groomed could probably deliver some high-speed runs. And DH-esque airtime. Safety netting is the hoard of sledders at the bottom.

Glad you are on the mend. When I peeled off from the group at the top of chair 3 it was to help load a racer on the course who had gone down hard. The race course was super slick, incredibly more so than all the other runs we skied.
If it ain't gonna snow might as well soften up a little at the windy hill. Sounds like we are getting thereCommon sense. So rare today in America it's almost like having a superpower.

I'm glad that no matter where, the consensus is no where at the northern dead end.
Helen Keller could do a better job than some of the current staff.

Aside from maybe the Canyon, I can't think of anything steep that gets groomed regularly at your cul-de-sac...

Had a throwback day at Stevens - got to the mountain at 8:50 am, parked 2 rows back from the stairs, 8" new snow in the lot, 0 lift line at 9:05, boot top dry powder over a firm base, knee deep if you found where the wind blew it. Skied hard all morning and bailed at 1 pm when work started to sound more important than powder. Low angle and a light touch was the name of the game... steeps aren't holding the snow. 2 laps out in a low angle zone rewarded face shots and the floatiest turns of the day..

A friend invited me to ride Mt Baker this weekend. Is it worth it for this storm? I have been starved for pow in Tahoe.

Heading to Crystal this weekend. Any advice about good spots to hit earlier/later in the day? How stable has the snow back been on steeper aspects?
